Is that an appropriate message to receive from a friend’s boyfriend?

[Tartanarmy2]

It was my birthday yesterday and I posted a little collage of photos on my Instagram story from the day out I had with my DH. One of my friends’ boyfriends replied with the message ‘I hope he is giving you another present when you get home 😅’. Obviously insinuating sex.

I’ve met him maybe three times. Would you laugh it off? DH says it’s creepy but he wouldn’t say anything to my friend.

I hope this is a new boyfriend she’s going to bin very shortly. Grim.

Ugh yeah that's a bit creepy. Hopefully just misplaced "humour" but if he says anything else of a similar ilk I'd tell your mate.

A bit over-familiar from someone you barely know

Creepy!

I’d ignore and hope your friend soon tires of him. I’d not say anything to her.

Yuk. I'd be deleting the message.

Each to there own and with “banter” like this you need to know your audience
some would be offended and others find it funny

he doesn’t sound like a close friend so at best it was a missed judge joke
but tbh I think it’s inappropriate

it’s the type of thing you could only say to someone your on the same level with and you have the type of relationship where the tone is set

It’s been nearly 2 years and very on and off. We’ve tried telling her he’s not the one but it falls on deaf ears.

Ew, very creepy.
I’m not a prude but… ew!
I wouldn’t tell the friend unless she specifically asked “did BF say happy birthday/message you?”.

Nah that's creepy for anyone to say to someone in a relationship.

One birthday my mate's dh sent me a dick pic... I backed away from the friendship.. I never told her..

That is the sort of nudge-nudge-wink-wink comment that might be just about acceptable in a crowded pub with everyone present and slightly pissed, but definitely not in a personal message from your friend's boyfriend.

I would ask 'why?', let him out himself further then screenshot and send to friend. No way would I let my friend obliviously stay with someone doing shit like that.

Well it's there for everyone to see so the cringe factor/banter is open. No need for you to reply, it's on him. Like the old days when someone said sth like this, you would laugh or say ugh too personal mate. Xx

I'd have replied and said sorry, what do you mean? And see how he tried to explain it.

He is either just a creepy person who thinks these types of 'jokes' are funny, or he's a creepy person testing the waters with you. God knows what he's sending to other people!

I'd just ignore it. Probably just an ill-judged attempt at humour but yes, I'd find it a bit creepy 🤮

Misplaced humour. Very misplaced.
